摘要

SPINAL MUSCULAR ATROPHY (SMA) is characterized by the death of motor neurons that leads to diffuse proximal and distal weakness, hypotonia, and muscular atrophy. Survival motor neuron (SMN), neuronal apoptosis inhibitory protein (NAIP), and GTF2H2 genes were shown to be associated with SMA. SMN protein is encoded by two genes that are twoalmost identical copies, telomeric SMN (SMN1) and centromeric SMN (SMN2). The SMNI gene is homozygously absentin approximately 95% of SMA patients, whereas loss of SMN2 has been reported not to cause SMA. Prenatal diagnosis is widely applied for those pregnancies at risk for SMA, and here we present a family in which each of the parents is carrying SMN1 and NAIP gene deletions in one allele and SMN2deletion in the other. Their first child was carrying SMNI and NAIP gene deletions in both alleles and died at the age of 9 months. During the second pregnancy, the fetus was found to carry SMN2 deletion in both alleles, and the pregnancy was not terminated.
